A photo of the Northern Owl is flipped to make right and left earrings. A mother-of-pearl opal glaze beneath the pictures seems to glow up through the transparent images on domed cabochon buttons, making the owls appear luminous. When tilted in the light, the ivory background has a discreet opal affect and the birds' feathers appear metallic.

Button frame measures 3/4" wide X 1" high. Stone is 13mm x 20mm. Photo will be aprx. 1/2" around.

Available in gold plated metals (as shown) or silver plated metals. Choose from surgical steel pierced post & nut or (non-pierced) comfort clip backings.

• Although some owl species are diurnal (active by day), most owls hunt at night and are seldom observed by humans. Because of this nocturnal existence, they are little known and often misunderstood, even though some owls live their entire lives in close proximity to people.

• Hunting at night, owls use their extraordinary vision and excellent hearing to locate their prey.

• Special adaptations such as wide wings, lightweight bodies and unusually soft, fluffy feathers allow them to fly silently.

• Owls seize their prey, usually a rodent or other small mammal, and kill it with their powerful feet. If the prey is small enough, it is swallowed whole; otherwise the food is torn apart by the owl's strong, hooked beak.
